Charge On to Graduation

Charge On To Graduation (COTG) is a junior intervention program designed for students who have earned 74-89 units. It is an interactive advising program intended to support students in identifying their degree requirements, creating their educational plan, and preparing for graduation. Charge On To Graduation seeks to familiarize students with the junior year “Student Advising Learning Outcomes” (SALOS). 

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the difference between Commencement and Graduation
• Identify when, where, and how to apply for graduation
• Identify the 6 graduation requirements
• Understand how to utilize the Academic Requirements Report to track progress towards completion of all graduation requirements
• Understand how to access, navigate, and utilize SMART Planner to create an academic plan and determine their expected graduation term
• Learn about campus resources for graduate school and/or careers within their field

Who? Juniors who have earned 74-89 units (including transfer coursework). If you are required to take this workshop you will receive notification via Toromail on February 23, 2021 and there will be a COTG hold placed on your account by March 1, 2021.
